The totem pole arrived at Card Rd. last fall and has undergone some construction on the raven, which is the top figure. The totem pole has a height of 16 ft. and 4 figures: a beaver, a wolf, a raven and a turtle. The totem pole was created 12 years ago so there has been some deterioration, rotten wood. This has all been removed and replaced with tufa. This is a cement, sphagnum and perl lite mix which is very light and should last a long while. The raven's wings have been repainted and are ready for installation prior to standing it up. For support we have a 3 1/2 by 3 1/2 in. x by 16 ft. piece of tubular steel. As soon as the ground thaws and the weather warms, a foundation will be poured down by the house entry. Viewing from the drive and house will be cool. We will be repainting the whole pole. You are gonna have to see this. More to follow. For more info email me at lorraine.card @gmail.com
